Well finally. At least we know it was not abducted by aliens.

Maybe the area will lead them to further clues and also make it possible to possible trace a line back based on the tides.

Interesting that they found bodies first and not debris. It's normally the other way around isn't it?

Bodies and debris have been found from the Air France plane which went missing over the Atlantic last Monday, the Brazilian air force has said. The remains were taken from the water at 0814 Brazilian time (1114 GMT), said spokesman Jorge Amaral.

Will be interesting to see just over how big an area the debris is spread over, if the aircraft disintegrated at it maximum altitude it could still be a significant time before the black boxes are discovered (if they ever are that is)

According to the Air Force, in this Saturday morning were rescued in the water and body parts of victims of the Air France flight 447.


According to the Air Force, the wreckage was sighted between 5am and 6am in the morning by a plane of the FAB. The first body was removed from the water by 9.30 of a crew of vessels engaged in search and recognized as male.

A blue chair with serial number 237011038331-0 was also collected, but the Air Force announced that the still awaiting confirmation from Air France that it is the aircraft.


According to the GloboNews, Marco Tulio Moreno, relative of a passenger, were also found a leather briefcase with a ticket from Air France and a bag of nylon. Before you pass the information to the press, the Air Force informed the relatives of passengers.

They also found debris, it says so on the Globo link provided by komp_uk, 69,5 km from the point where the automated comunication was sent.

For the record, I have just heard on a French radio French officials don't confirm. No official statements on this for now.

At least some families will get some family members bodies back, and the media and these sights can stop talking aload of bull saying this and that.

Will they be able to tell anything from the bodies?

just now on the bbc here in the uk its said bodies but not debris.

Ok I'm hearing from sources that Debris found includes Blue chair, Leather Briefcase containing and Air France ticket,

It's possible post mortems may be able to tell how they died which in turn may help indicate what happened.

I think the mention of just bodies is simply the media highlighting what most of the public will be more interested in hearing - no doubt there will be some other debris as well. However, bodies float whereas aircraft sink.

The 2 bodies that have been found our both male, And both thought to be passengers

UPDATE2:

Press conference just finished.

They have now recoevered 2 bodies from the ocean. Both Male. Also recoeverd laptop bag and suitcase. An oxygen mask also receovered.

More debris is in the water. The presume this is that of AF447.

The vessel retreiving it is a brazilian naval vessel about 400 miles north.

Due to previous confusion this week of debris the findings are coming out in little pieces. The debris is not all in 1 area.

Bodies 'found' from missing plane

BBC

Two bodies and debris have been found from the Air France plane which went missing over the Atlantic last Monday, the Brazilian air force has said.

The remains were taken from the water early on Saturday morning, said spokesman Jorge Amaral.

Experts on human remains are on their way to examine the find.

All 228 passengers and crew on board AF 447 are believed to have been killed when the plane disappeared during its flight from Rio de Janeiro to Paris.

"We confirm the recovery from the water debris and bodies from the Air France plane," Col Amaral said at a news conference in the northern city of Recife.

He later added that two male bodies had been found, as well as objects linked to passengers known to be on the flight, including a suitcase with a plane ticket.

A seat was also found, but there has been no confirmation that it was from the flight.

The remains were picked up some 640 km (400 miles) northeast of the islands of Fernando de Noronha, off Brazil's northern coast.

Correspondents say that much of the search effort so far has been focused on finding flight data recorders, which have sonar beacons - or "pingers" - attached to them.

I'll tell you what strkes me as odd here:

including a suitcase with a plane ticket.

When was the last time you flew and kept your ticket with your suitcase?

[edit on 6-6-2009 by kiwifoot]

on foxnews.com they are saying that all 228 passengers perished in the crash. So are they have just said they are all dead??? i meen surely they cant state that as fact if they hav not got all 228 bodies already???

just a thought

here is the link.

Also found a bag with a ticket from Air France and a backpack containing a laptop. In each backpack there name, but the Air Force explains that it does not necessarily relate to the bodies found. One of the bags had a card inside the vaccination.

Where were the bodies and the wreckage is about 69.5 kilometers from the point where there was the last report of failure of machine Airbus and about 900 miles of Fernando de Noronha

Would have thought it was more likely that the ticket was inside a briefcase rather than a suitcase? could be just a translation problem?
